Non-modal dialogues
« on: May 03, 2012, 06:07:46 pm »
I dont know how others feel, but the situation I am in at the moment is that my team are writing up Use Cases and Scenarios. So I open up the Use Case properties dialogue, only to want to see what I did in another use case. The modality of the dialogue box means I have to close one before I can open another, when ideally, I would like to see both at the same time.

So, whos up for non-modal dialogues and is it feasible wrt the database?

I use the docked scenario's window + the EA Navigator to find the use case I was working on again.

Attributes/Operations are non-modal. If you select another element the according list is updated. So yes: why does the main properties window behave different?
